✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Created as a special limited edition to celebrate the 65th anniversary of the Parisian spirits specialist La Maison du Whisky, Compass Box Ethereal is a masterfully crafted blended malt Scotch whisky. It serves as a spiritual successor to 'Eleuthera', one of Compass Box's earliest and most beloved creations. Ethereal explores the delicate interplay between smoke and elegance, blending mature, heavily peated Islay single malt (primarily from the Caol Ila distillery) with fruity, structured Highland malts. This combination yields a complex, ethereal profile where maritime peat smoke, medicinal notes, and cold ash are beautifully balanced by ripe orchard fruits, vanilla, and soft oak spices. It represents the pinnacle of John Glaser's blending philosophy, where contrasting flavor profiles harmonize into a seamless, multi-dimensional spirit.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Compass Box er et banebrydende skotsk whisky blending-hus med base i London, grundlagt i 2000 af den amerikanske iværksætter og tidligere vinhandler John Glaser. Virksomheden fungerer som en uafhængig boutique-whiskymager frem for et traditionelt destilleri og udvælger enestående single malt- og grain-whiskyer fra hele Skotland. Her nytænkes blending-kunsten gennem kreativ fadmodning, skræddersyede franske egetræsfade og et kompromisløst fokus på gennemsigtighed. Compass Box har udfordret de traditionelle konventioner i whiskyverdenen med sin progressive filosofi og håndværksmæssige tilgang, hvilket har resulteret i en alsidig portefølje, der hyldes for sin levende innovation og kompleksitet. Blandt husets mest roste signaturaftapninger findes Hedonism, en skelsættende blended grain whisky, samt anerkendte blended malts som The Peat Monster og The Spice Tree.
